The Electronics Development Group is located in the Accelerator building and is part of the University of Chicago. The role of the “eshop” is to work with students and faculty members on cutting edge electronic engineering design. In the eshop, students can design, route, build and test boards under the supervision of an electronics engineer. Eshop engineers are available to help with research for grant proposals as well. Past electronics systems designed and built in the eshop are currently being used in experiments worldwide.
The eshop makes available to faculty and students the latest electronic design automation (EDA) software and test equipment, enabling users to fully simulate any designs before the actual build process and test it out once it has been completed. If you would like to take a tour or have any other questions, please email Mary Heintz. Or if you are affiliated with the university and interested in learning electronics, please fill out this form to let us know of your interest.
